Subject: Re: What's wrong with etching PCB's

Hi Hans,
I have no problem with etching. I will even say that Proto
board then Perf onto etched PCBoard. Right now the boards I sell
are milled. If sales get higher I will have a run of boards
etched. I don't like the acid method because I have had some
accidents in the past. I feel all methods of making circuit
boards should be discussed. Going from schematic to PCBoard
has several routes also.
